Night Safari
The Bush at night
A day on safari is a wonderful thing, but so is what happens when the sun sets. The cares of mankind shift perspective as night falls, with infinitely distant stars shining brilliantly onto nature’s darkened canvas, unspoiled by city lights. As the darkness deepens, sounds change and a new cast of creatures begin to roam and skulk. This is a world our ancestors knew and perhaps feared: for us, it is a heartfelt joy.
One of the unexpected highlights of a visit to Bushtops is the night show. Each of our camps is sited in the middle of a wilderness, giving our guests crystal-clear views of spectacular constellations. This may not be the main reason our guests visit, but they always leave with a sense of awe at the majesty of African skies.
Explore the night
The Bush is even more active during the night than during the day. From night hunters and foraging porcupines to busy dung beetles navigating by the Milky Way, marvels and mysteries abound. With Mara Bushtops being a private Conservancy, we’re able to head out into this otherwise hidden world.
